I wanted these pants for soccer practice in the winter and also just to use out when I want to wear something comfortable. I got an XS and they were very loose in the thigh area which was perfect for me because I have very big thighs, but I'm 4'11 so the pants were way too long for me. To fix this problem I rolled the bottom of the pants in and folded them, but I'm also thinking on going to get them tailored since I wanted these pants because I thought they'd be really easy to just slip on but I have to take my time folding them and then zipping them, although I'm not sure if it's possible to get them tailored since they have zippers at the bottom. I think these pants would've fit me perfectly if I was ~4 inches taller. ... read more
Generally, it's a good woven pants. It's suitable for most of seasons of Australia. Perfect performance for winter running. But there is one point I have to mention: if you get lager size of your hip you'd better upgrade one size larger. I've got large hip size. therefore, I felt the waist of pants a little bit tight when I was putting on it. After you put on the whole pants it still fit but the process may not smoothly. Anyway, I still recommand this one but you guys need to choose the right size. ... read more
I love how adidas always has nice quality and durable fabric, but with these pants I was let down and I have a few training pants from adidas. I bought these along with the Trio 15 pants and for 5 dollars more the trios are worth it. They have about the same fit, but the trios seem to be a little more fitted around the thighs but still allow great movement. The fabric for these core 15 pants are incredibly thin to the point if you held them up and looked through one layer of fabric you can see clearly through the other side. Overall if you're looking into these pants I would highly recommend buying the Trio 15 pants for 5 more dollars it will be well worth it. ... read more
I'm 5'3" and 115 lbs and i wear a size small in adidas pants, and i own multiple pairs of the Tiro 15 training pants. So, i bought a small in these pants but they're a little tighter, so i have to unzip them at the bottom to fit them over my ankles. I'm not sure if i want to go up one size, because then i know the waist will be too big. Overall, great pants but they're tighter than the Tiro 15s, and i love the sizing on those pants. ... read more
I am absolutely in love with these pants. I'm 5'2 and 125 lbs, on a good day, waist size of 26 inches. I got these in a small and they fit perfectly. It's a loose fit, but tight enough around the thighs. ... read more
This pair was my first purchase on Adidas website, I had not been a fan of working out pants because I believed shorts are so much more comfortable. This pair completely changed my mind, great material, perfect fit just as I expected, very comfy and work well for all from running to lifting. I bought this pair of pants a month ago, I waited for a while to see how they last before writing this review. It still looks brand new after at least 20 washes. I look into purchasing more of this type of product. ... read more
The pants themselves were okay; a little tight. I ended up returning them ultimately because they were short and I don't even have long legs! Adidas is still a great company, quick delivery and returns just clothing is iffy depending on what you order. I recommend you try things on to get a feel of how their clothing fits you before buying online. ... read more
These pants fit great! I am a female and I always by men small and they fit the same as the tiro that I own as well. I do not get the baggy or hammer pants look. I recommend these pants. Simple alternative to the tiro. Definitely going to buy in blue and gray. Very comfortable. ... read more
I don't play sports but I like a good "sweat pant" for the weekends. I used to wear the Tiro soccer pant until I discovered these. They are a little thinner and a lot more comfortable. I have a hard time finding this type of pant that isn't skin tight or a mile too long (I'm 52 years old and 5' 2" tall). These pants are perfect and only $40! I wish they came in more than just 2 colors. Anyway, excellent product. THANK YOU ADIDAS! ... read more
I've got big powerlifter legs unfortunately, so while they fit me really well in terms of length, they're just too tight around my calves and thighs which inhibits range of motion. Nothing poor about the design, just not made for people with big legs. For reference, I have 27" thighs and 17" calves, usually wear a 34 waist and am 6'3" ... read more
I thought it was crazy paying $40 for sweats but it is well worth it! I got the medium & I usually wear a 6-8 & they're perfect.. I'm kinda short too 5'3 & the tampering at the legs make me happy! I would wear these everyday if I could I may even buy a few colors so I could! Awesome pant. ... read more
As what the other people who wrote reviews here that its like an "mc hammer pants" I didn't really listen to it, I bought it anyway since the picture shown looks like a skinny fit. But when I got it and tried it on, I was disappointed. It really is a loose fit on the thigh area and skinny fit under the knees, it looks terrible so I returned it. The tiro pants has better modern fit. This one is like the old school and adidas should do something with the picture. It really is misleading ... read more
Don't play soccer, just always wanted a nice comfy and flattering pair of sweats but never wanted to pay so much. Finally did and I'm glad! They're super comfortable and fit very nice. I am 5'5.5 and weigh about 130 lbs and I got a small. They fit nice everywhere, not too snug on the waist but their is a draw string as well. ... read more
Personally I feel these could be a little bit tighter, so going down a size may be a better option. However, the length of these are absolutely perfect for me. Fortunately the padded knee zones are as wide and lengthy as they are as the pants fit a little loose around that area, so they still provide the padded protection for your knees as you'd expect. ... read more
I've been using the Tierro 13 for 3 years now. I have the long ones and the 3/4. They are one of the best pants out there. I play 2 to 3 times per week, in turf and natural pitch and they last a lot. I'm a waist size 34 and the size M fit me perfectly. The padding is really good and even though it won't stop you from bruises or anything, it feels really good. If you want a hight quality pant if your starting to play or want to try a new one, be sure that this will be a great choice. ... read more
I'm 6'1 with a 34" waist and chunky thighs, background in contact sports which is what drew me to these padded "goalie" pants. It's usually quite hard to determine what size fits best for me when it comes to sportswear because a Medium can be too tight or a Large too loose. In this case, the Large fit like sweatpants which was very awkward given the solid padded sides which weighed the pants down as oppose to form-fitting to my legs. I'd recommend ordering true-to-size or even ordering a size down if you're inbetween like me, to ensure a secure fit. Unfortunately I never got to put these to the test [the Large being too big, was returned and at the time, Medium was not available] so I can't vouch for their durability, but in my experience, I feel the pads wouldn't last more than a couple months of regular use due to the thin material that holds them to the body of the pant. The knee pad was also quite awkward when you bend your knee, sometimes riding above or below the knee instead of cupping it - but this may well be due to the lack of a proper fit. Otherwise, black and white is always a classic, especially when showing off those 3-stripes and the pad design is interesting enough to help make you stand out from the other goalies / competitors out there. ... read more
In the pictures these pants seem to have the same fit as the Tiros. Not at all. They have more of a old school muscle pants fit and my wife described them as looking like mc hammer pants. Very good quality but much looser than they seem ... read more
I bought these pants for ultimate frisbee since there's a lot of diving involved and they're a must have when playing on turf. The knee and hip padding has significantly reduced the burns that I would normally get after practices and tournaments. ... read more
These pants are my daughters favorite goalie pants. She has tried several other brands and these are now the only ones she will wear. The knees finally gave in after 8 mos so I just purchased her two new pairs. ... read more

Here is my take on this thing. I am not overly proud of the court and correctional system in Milwaukee or Wisconsin and I would use 700K to analyze this broken and dysfunctional system in order to improve it and make it much more successful rather than decorate it with kinda nice art, make it look good and us feel good - it remains broken.
The money should go to the food banks but if push comes to shove, The Wild Flower looks OK, then the Fork, the other two should be shoved over the lake bank. Please melt down that orange piece of scrap iron along with it.
Ive see the county do some pretty stupid things over the yrs but this tops the list,hands down.When everyone is crying about school funds,food banks and any number of things there looking to litterally piss away 700.000.Looks like theres a lot more politicians who need to be recalled.I guess we live in a brain dead society,thanks in part to our edu system.truly pathetic.
You've got to be kidding!!! Milwaukee needs this like it needs a Big Blue Shirt or the Big Orange Thing on Wisconsin Ave. Where are the priorities??? Unemployment and poverity are at an all time high and the state of affairs is only going to get worse. The court house is a beautiful historic building and doesn't need to be dressed down.
"...The stimulus money was a good idea and it is trickling down. Bush is the cause for the recession, Not President Obama."
How long are you going to give President Obama a pass on his poor handling of the countries economic condition?? Holy cow. Sooner or later, you'll have to face the fact Obama is making thing worse, not better.
Regarding spending 700K on artwork, How about spending it INSIDE the jails for additional cells for the criminals instead of outside. We need to get these creeps off the streets.
I love art as well, but paying tax dollars for this just seems a bit over-the-top when people are struggling to make ends meet.
Wow, that Lady Justice is really lame and amateurish.
Democrates at work, waste money on useless junk, yes I said junk, you would have to be blind not to see these pieces of junk for what they are. But because it is "STIMULUS" money its ok, OUR MONEY WASTED AGAIN!!!
American tax dollars at work what a joke
Once again, the establishment art committee snubs local (WI) artists in favor of "coast" artists. The common theme of the local arts board for too long has been "if it's from NY or CA, it's got to be good". How is this supposed to support local arts when we send our tax dollars to other states?

Alan Wake Sells Only 145,000 in May Debut
Remedy's five-years-in-the-making adventure sees a disappointing debut.
Remedy's Xbox 360 exclusive action-adventure Alan Wake only managed to sell 145,000 copies during its May debut, a disappointing figure for a game that took an estimated five years of development time.
Representatives from the NPD group confirmed the numbers in a Joystiq report. As we previously reported, it was the eighth best selling game for the month, though the exact sales figure was not available at the time.
By comparison, Red Dead Redemption sold a combined 1,513,000 in May, literally ten times as many units.
Despite these figures, recent reports have confirmed that publisher Microsoft is still interested in pursuing more downloadable chapters for the game.

I'm happyPosted: Jul 14, 2010 12:00AM PST by IWillViolateYourPrecious
this means it'll go down to $20 in about 2 months and i can pick it up
Too many games..I'm not complainingPosted: Jul 10, 2010 12:00AM PST by Archod
Its not the quality of the game it's that there are so many great games out this year. Just like the low sales of racers (Mod Nation, Blur, Split/Second). I do plan on buying them all, but I need more time and money. I'm going to buy games with a higher replay value first (deep online multiplayer). This game looks more story driven; I'll only play through it once so it's farther down on my list.
Well...Posted: Jul 07, 2010 12:00AM PST by solidfenix
Goddamn shame I say. I bought it the day it came out and liked it way more than I thought I would. I'm lookin forward to the DLC. I hope they port it to the PS3 just so it'll make more money to get them to make a sequel
This is kind of an overshadowed game : )Posted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by MarcoPolo360
Its a shame, because this game is so good, one of my favorites of this year. I can see the reason, because I didn't buy it I rented it. It doesn't really have any replay value though after you beat it on the hardest difficulty theres not really much to it. I would highly recommend this game to anyone who likes an intense and deep single-player experience.
would of sold better on PS3Posted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by jellybeanmaster
as far as 360 games go this very different from the rest. and would be more at home in the ps3 library
understandable, i supposePosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by JASONCOURT
Alan Wake is not a stereotypical 360 owners game. There is not enough gratuitis violence, no multi-player, not that simple apeal with a licence and not a sports game to swear about on Live. It seems weird that its could be that simple, but it seems to be. The word was out. Sure, there wasn't quited Star Wars Force type promotion, but it wasn't bad either. Anyone who looked up reviews saw glowing recomendations.
This might have sold more on PS3 even if it was multi-platform. I'm glad I bought a cheap 360 recently and didn't hold out hope for a PC version. With those numbers it doesn't look like that will happen.
You havePosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by Mr.Sauce
summed it up with a spot on analysis. At least in my opinion. I thought there was some potential in this game and I would've thought it would've done better. In the end though, it's just like you said, not the sterotypical 360 game. Not a single game like THIS was shown in the upcoming lineup at MS E3 conference. MOSTLY gratuitous over the top violent games (which is fine still I'm sick of FPSs) and nothing outside the box.
That's too bad...Posted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by MooseyMcMan
But maybe it'll go on sale soon, and thus I might buy it. Or not.
ShamePosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by FoxScope
I really enjoyed this game. Sure there were problems like the bad animations for when you mantled something, the rare crappy platform bits and the crappy driving sections.
But in saying this, the story was interesting, the combat was tense and fun.
It is a real shame Rememdy will not be getting their money back on this game, I hope there is a sequel.
Buying this next weekPosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by Jayyyyyyyy
Have some money next week. So I am thinking of buying this since Crackdown 2 is not looking so hot now.
Waking AlanPosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by king_mob
It's a terrific game. I rented it and solved it over the weekend. In many ways, it's the game old school Resident Evil fans have been waiting for. I'd give it a B+. This game could have had great multiplayer if they'd created a system where team members can only make a monster vulnerable by shining multiple lights on it. The whole "go towards the light" mechanic really does make the game's battles a lot of fun.
Personally, I think the reason the game hasn't been successful is because it was shipped on the same day as Red Dead Redemption. It also has a very plain looking cover and a title that doesn't really convey the game's theme. Hopefully, Alan Wake will find a second life as a greatest hits release.
A game that deserved to tankPosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by omb123
Repetitve and monotonous gameplay, need to buy DLC for the ending, less than 10 hours, massive screen tearing, 90% of the game fills like filler, etc. How this game took 5 years to make is beyond me. This game deserved a 7/10 at best
People need to realize..Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by kev873
Most games have short stories. That is why this is called a GAME, not a STORY. If you want a long story buy a book. I've noticed people keep saying oh the story was short. It's a shame they didn't stick anything else on the disk. Oh wait, they did! People need to understand that people rush through a game just to beat the story, then complain that the story is short. No shit! Why don't you try doing the extra things that add to the atmosphere and story. Tv shows, Radio broadcasts, Manuscripts etc. Also people have to realize there are tons of little PS fanboys that will say anything to put down a 360 exclusive. They read something negative about a game, then post it as if they actually played it. I wish there was a way to monitor/ban people like this. They do nothing but ruin other peoples potential good time.
MetacriticPosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by kev873
Yeah I agree that the graphics could have been better, but I thought they were just fine for me. I'm not one to base a game on graphics. But as far as metacritic. Their rating system is screwed up. They are notorious for giving games a lower rating then what the actual reviewing site gave it. Take 1up for instance. They give something a B+. Well according to metacritic, that translates into a 82. That's just one example. You shave off a few ppoints here and there, and it'll have quite the impact on the final rating. Something that should have been a 90 will get knocked down to an 80 on that site. Also (this was just pointed out to me) check the ratings on the movies. They are hugely misrepresented on that site. terrible site.
Big dissapointment....Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by EliteDarkMage
I thought it would do better....
Most likelyPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Greendewey
Probably many people feel the same way; the game looks cool but its too much money for the game length and up against some tough monthly competition. So they wait for the price to go down or rent it.
Game industry needs to fix their pricing system so that good games like this can survive.
I had high hopes for this gamePosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by kscripter
Looks like this game will be real cheap soon (of course, nearly every new release has had quick price reductions lately).
i bought itPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by ibanezdropd
I loved it. It's still sitting on my shelf. I don't trade games in. That's really sad that it sold that little. It's a great game.
game lengthPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by jhmdf1
FYI, I am 10 into the game and am not done... but I do not run through games... if I spend the money for them I want to look at them and investigate. With a game like this that looks so good with the great lighting, I could look around for hours.
I want to play it but...Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Mr.Donatti
The reviews here stating the short length bother me since it's still full price everywhere. i can't justify paying $60 for it when something like Red Dead Redemption still consumes my playtime.
Can't compare the twoPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by kev873
They are totally different games. The experience you will get from a game like this is worth 60 bucks. I paid 80 bucks for the limited edition and would pay it again in a second. Compared to RDR the game is really short. But the story that you play through, the collectables (if you don't cheat and look up the locations) will take you 12-15 hrs. You should play it on nightmare to get the most out of the suspense.This is like a great book. Something that you'll want to add to your collection and go back to again. Plus if you buy it new, you get a code for the dlc so it's free. If you are going to compae the two, and cant justify spending 60 bucks on it (the price has dropped) then you should not have bought any games other than GTA, Fallout, Obvlivion, and RDR. Every game is short compared to those games.

I would imagine the constant delaying of this game didn't help it in the long run. The mainstream market didn't know about it because they didn't market it very well and the hardcore got tired of waiting and moved on.
Looks like...Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by 0ktane
They should've released on PC as well like they ORIGINALLY planned.
I got it on gamefly but reconsidering buying it now...Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Final_Spart4n
I cannot wait for the DLC. The story was amazing and left me wondering on the cliffhanger. Was it all a dream or part of a book. oh please hurry with my dlc!!!
Pretty short game.Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by BringItSon
gonna try it out when i have time.
but i hear its only 4-5 hours
@BringitsonPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by kev873
The game is not 4-4 1/2 hrs long. Even if you ran through it without collecting anything is going to take you roughly 8 hrs. Maybe a little less than that. If you are flying through a game just to beat it, you shouldnt' be playing games. The story is only one aspect of this game. There is so much more to it. Listening to the radio stations, finding manuscripts, enjoying the scenery, among other things. For anyone to beat it without enjoying all that a game has to offer, and get's pissed that it's short, should only get pissed at themselves. They are cheating themselves out of a great experience. I guarantee alot of people that put it down are kids that are PS3 fanboys. It's a 360 exclusive, so you will have these little kids putting it down while pretending to have played it. Just about everyone that let themselves get into the game has loved it. Not saying that every person loves it, because I know there are people that this game just wasn't meant for. And thats cool. This is why I hate forums. You get alot of scum bag little kids that will put something down just because they think it's cool. Meanwhile some people read what they say and take it to heart, then stay away from the game. Try it out. I think if you let yourself get wrapped into the game, you'll like it alot.
ive heard it from a reviewer...Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by BringItSon
i enjoy games like Fable franchise, Mass effect franchise, crackdown and some rpgs.
and they all have atleast 15 hours of gameplay.
However, i heard it from a reviewer that u can finish the game in "around 5 hours if you rush through..." which i do usually....
maybe it was their second play through or something... but i dont plan to enjoy the scenery or listen to radio station in the game.
so i wont be buying it right away. but thx for the advice though. i will def pick it up when the price drops.
I'd just like to sayPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by ghostman2k78
Thank goodness for this game, and I hope that a sequel is made. Not everybody in the world gives a damn about silly western sandbox games or Mario's 50millionth game.
Remedy, you rock-screw the initial sales, make a sequel and you'll surely sell more units.
Enjoying ThisPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Xvoid6f
Go back and read my rant about how stupid it was of the developers to no longer support the PC version. A co-release of the PC version may not have made THAT much better of a debut, but I still thing wider exposure and word-of-mouth would have made it better. To recap, my rant was that the devs were idiots for no longer supporting the PC version even though they started development on PC, and the APIs between Windows and Xbox 360 are not *shockingly* different.
Therefore, I am glad that this project is failing. It feels like karma is correct in this case.
Good luck with the PC release, devs. You'll get even worse sales now.
calm down....Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by BringItSon
they were arrogant that they could do enough sales on360 and then be able to move on to PC.
but with these weak sales, i doubt they will release on PC anyway.
How can you claim it had a bad ending?Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by SpringheeldJack
The game hasn't even been completed, yet. There's at least two more episodes in the pipeline.
And I thought the game was fantastic. It was certainly the scariest game I've ever played, and the combat mechanics were fantastic. It had flaws, but so do a lot of game that I love. Surprisingly, I thought Red Dead was a lot less fun than Alan Wake, but that's a matter of preference.
Not surprised to see low sales figures, though. Remedy has always made fantastic games that are underappreciated in the market. Max Payne 1 & 2 represent some of the best 3rd person action titles out there, and nobody bought those, either. Reviews always talk about how their games are fantastic, but only ten hours long. And gamers never stop to think that ten great hours, and some reasons to return to the games a second time for 100% or alternate endings, is worth plunking down their dollars for. And god help us all if a game doesn't have multiplayer.
Easy to see whyPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by techknight
They created this cool fiction world and setup and then made a collect-a-thon FPS where you have to shoot things with one "gun" and then another. The IP deserved so much better.
Shouldn't have went up against Red Dead and Galaxy.Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by SamuraiTerry
granted I got all 3 : )
That's because the game stunk, and everyone knows itPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by EKGTrooper
Atleast over here anyway. For a game with so much hype I was really upset to find a boring, repetitive, poorly written snooze fest. It had some great ideas but they just didn't come together. You did the same thing over and over and over again inbetween pushing buttons and listening to the dreadful script.
I know some people will defend the game, but the large majority of core gamers that I have spoken to really did not like it. As a matter of fact, on Xbox Live and PSN every single person I have asked or even just heard talking about it had nothing nice to say about it.
LOLPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by kev873
@ EKGTrooper Bullshit! LOL all 3 people that you've talked to about this game? Gee, I can't see why anyone on PSN would talk bad about a MS exclusive game.
This game has been praised on the story and the writing. You obviously don't know a thing about writing. I'll take someone with a degree in writing over some schmuck like you. It was a cool game. You didn't like it, that's cool. but don't come on here telling lies about how none of the "core" gamers liked it.
Funny how most of the people that did play it, loved it. Check out the website or the xbox forums for alan wake.
@EKGTrooperPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by coolbreeze70056
Try playing it for yourself and stop listening to everyone else (who may be getting their own thoughts from someone who heard something from someone else who....to infinity).
I personally can't stand Halo 3, but friends of mine love it. But I base my opinion on purchasing it on day 1, seeing the crappy graphics (compared to Bioshock, Crysis, and The Darkness that was released around the same time), cookie-cutter story, and the ridiculous 4 hours it took me to finish the game. The multiplayer in my eyes didn't look any different than Halo 2 that I was playing for years, so after my PERSONAL EXPERIENCE I considered that game a complete fail.
Alan Wake was also a day one purchase. Great atmosphere and storyline, graphics that didn't break any benchmarks but were very immersive, 8.5 hours to finish, and an ending that is complete but leaves the door open for the dlc and possible sequel.
Don't make someone else's opinion your personal point of view, or you're going to miss out on a lot of great gaming experiences. Reviewers at 1up, GameTrailers, IGN, and your contacts on the Internet are just humans who may have been in the middle of a bad personal experience when they are playing a particular game and may claim that a good game sucks.
P.S. I played and beat Bionic Commando for myself and that was the best weekend rental of 2009. Screw the reviews!!!!
10 hour games = rentalPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by VDKT
The last time I spent $70 on a 10 hour game, I finished it in a weekend and banged my head against the wall for not reading a review before buying it because I could of just went to Blockbusters nearby and pay less than $20 so I could of rented the same game for the whole weekend!
Alan Wake can be finished in 10 hours, it's still $69.99CAD everywhere I go, EBgames has used copies for $64.99 (WTF!? $5 savings for a used copy!?) and I saw a few people selling the game for $50 on Craigslist... but that's still way too much!
Game developers seriously have to stop QQing when their tiny 10 hour games don't sell! When a game is short, it's a rental! End of discussion! If you're someone that spends $70 on a 5 to 10 hour game with no replay value, you're either a serious hardcore gamer with no other game to play, so you absolutely MUST buy every new release or else you're bored.... or you're a rich bastard and kudos for you, if I was rich I'd buy every new game just to watch my collection grow..... or you're just stupid, like how I was when I paid $69.99 for Batman Arkham Asylum and finished the game on the same weekend I had bought it.
But I learned my lesson... and by the looks of it, more and more people are learning their lessons too!
Sort of...Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by GunBullet
MW2 was really short too, but the multiplayer keeps it running long after the game fizzles out with a wimpy climax. The main people that should have learned are the developers. Perhaps, as others have said, the 5 years it took for this polished gem to come out are to blame. I think it would have sold well in 2005 or 2006 when multiplayer wasn't the huge friggen monster it is today. HUGE, as in can't ignore it. Poor Remedy, they might need a phoenix down.
Kudos to me I guessPosted: Jul 06, 2010 12:00AM PST by pervysage
You should see how big my collection has grown, and Alan Wake is right there with it. I haven't played it once since I beat it but it is nice to know that if any of my family or friends haven't played a game in my collection I can always let them borrow it. My brother just got his first 360 two months ago (thank to me) and as soon as he is done with Dead Rising, I am going to recommend he borrows my Alan Wake.
For one thingPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Kenshiro28
they didn't even market it. At all.
Don't think this was marketed well.Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by ebuz
For starters, not marketed at all. Aside from a few website banners here and there, I only know of the game because of keeping up to date.
Plus, I don't think there is much market on the 360 for this kind of game. I imagine it would have fared a little better on the PS3.
Bought it, brought it backPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by CFSaints37
I bought mine from Gamestop for 50 bucks used, beat it in three days and returned it for all my money back. That being said it was a good time and I enjoyed it but it wasn't worth 50 bucks.
SomebumPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by jcm1981
CFSaints chose to vote with the only weapon he has as a consumer: the all-mighty dollar bill. As consumers, we can only impress our disdain with the free market through our wallets. I agree with what you're saying, this is the reason publishers and developers hate used sales, but after five years, c'mon, make a product that's worth purchasing. My speculation--and that's all it is--is that Remedy changed so much of the core game so late that they had to push out a product that wasn't fully realized.
I also agree with most of the criticisms on here. The game was awfully short, the graphics were hit or miss, and for a game with so much potential it did end up as "just another shooter with a neat mechanism" (the flashlight). There were absolutely no puzzles, I found the combat to be cheap and repetitive, and I didn't give a damn about the characters. I'm only glad I did not pay full price for it.
damn..that sucks...Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by myballzich
Alan Wake is a cool game imo. Worst mistake ever was coming out same day as Red Dead!..oh and not goin multi-plat wasnt to bright either..either way..still a damn cool game!
How could it go multiplatform?Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Kenshiro28
It's a Microsoft game, no? It'd be like Halo or Gears going multiplatform...or for that matter, Mario Bros.
I feel bad for the devs.Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by BringItSon
but usually successful ones on 360 seems to be the online multiplayer based games.
I have known about the game for a while obviously cuz im on 1upPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by unknown_soldier.com
but I haven't seen any advertising for this game ANYWHERE.
THis is what happens.Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by TPoppaPuff
The game is certainly better than most titles that get released every year and the numbers relative to other titles certainly don't reflect the quality of the game. Unfortunately though, this is what can happen when you release a rental rather than a full fledged game. It's a short campaign with no replay value; pretty much the definition of a rental. Some rentals get away with that and still sell like crazy (God of War 3) and other titles like Alan Wake simply do not.
Bad Choice for TitlePosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Hunterman328
I read gaming magazines, so I've known about Alan Wake for a long time and if not for a money shortage right now I would already own it. But even if the titular character's name has some significant relevance to the game, for a game title, Alan Wake is very boring. I would bet money that if the publishers had come up with something relevant with any of the words Dead, Evil, Blood, etc., that they would have sold more titles. Otherwise when the average casual gamer who doesn't follow the industry in magazines or websites like this one walks into their local Gamestop looking for a cool mysterious action game, I'd bet Resident Evil or something similar grabs his eye before Alan Wake does. If I was him and didn't know any hype about video games, and there was a game called George Cruise on the shelves, I doubt if I'd even grab the box to even look at the back and see what it was about.

9 hours or so TOO long. The game was maybe the biggest dissapointment i've experienced with a game.
my $60Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Electricb7
can go towards a better game. sorry.
SeriouslyPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Xer0Signal
Most over-rated game of the year by a mile.
I realize it still isn't rated very high, but, it's worse than the reviews want to let on.
Bummer for Remedy, though. I still like them.
HehPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by EnjoyIncubus
I wonder how it would have sold had they released it when people actually gave a shit, i.e. 2 or 3 years ago.
360 exclusivity probably didn't help either.
here we go....Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Dinkle_Dork
Yeah, 360 exclusivity isn't the way to go. I mean look how it hurt Halo, Gears of War, Mass Effect and Fable.......
lol..Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by EnjoyIncubus
Way to miss my point completely.
@ Dinkle_DorkPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Bozon-IGN
Every single game you mentioned came out for the PC as well so that certainly helped their bottom line and total amount of copies sold. I expect Alan Wake will come out on the PC for the holidays as well. Hope so, I would love to play it.
If they released it a month laterPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by ss_goku4
It would have probably sold a lot better. I mean after 5 years, what was one more month? But at the same time, I think this is what happens when games take too long to develop. People start to lose interest and the game itself gets overshadowed by something else that slipped under the radar.
Hopefully it'll have long legs.Posted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Coarse_Limely
I know I'll be getting it soon, anyway.
I guess that's what Remedy getsPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by Survival Shooter
For taking 5 years to make a disappointing game.
commentsPosted: Jul 05, 2010 12:00AM PST by HighWindXIX
Oddly enough for a game that was so hyped during its development, it felt like once they actually had a release date for it that Microsoft kind of ignored it. Almost as if they weren't quite sure how to market it perhaps? I for one bought it and enjoyed it quite a bit and will be picking up the DLC when it becomes available.
P.S. The whole time playing it, I kept thinking to myself: "I bet this would have sold better on PS3..."

The 11 Best Veggie Burgers in the US
Looking for the best burgers on the map? Its about to get juicy with this list of top-notch veggie burgers.
What could be better than a savory, flavor-packed veggie burger served with golden, salty frites? Nothing. OK, maybe there are a few things outside of the food sphere, but for dramatic effect, we are going to say nothing could possibly be better. We scoured the country—and enlisted the help of food experts—to decide the best of the best. To find your veggie burger nirvana, these 11 eateries (in no particular order) serve up burgers ranging from wholesome and nutritious to should-be-illegal (with all the fixin's). Dig in!
1. Burger on Smith, Brooklyn, NY
The Nutty Professor is one of Burger on Smith's fan favorites, not to mention Viva Vegan! author Terry Hope Romero's burger of choice. The Nutty Professor, which brings to mind a disguised Eddie Murphy, also conjures pure tastiness. The nut, veggie, and quinoa trio make for a knockout patty, and the oven-roasted tomato, avocado, and creamy herb sauce make this vegan dish something to savor over. Romero expresses her love for the eatery's vegan bun, saying, "it's like a lighter, chewy everything bagel, but maybe better."
2. Comet Café, Milwaukee, WI
My #1 favorite veggie burger, the vegan Big Luck Burger, hails from the bustling old-school diner Comet Café in Milwaukee, WI. Everything about this burger screams perfection—the burger patty is even encrusted in hazelnuts! Adorned with the classics: lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles, the Big Luck comes with hand-cut fries or a small salad; I strongly recommend the fries, which are mind-bogglingly good. Polish it all off with a vegan Bloody Mary garnished with pickled veggies and mixed with anchovy-free house-made Worcestershire sauce.
3. The Eatery on Farwell, Milwaukee, WI
Mushroom enthusiast? You'll love The Eatery on Farwell's vegan Ratatouille Burger. This veggie burger puts a healthy spin on the American classic with its alternative portobello mushroom cap patty, and packed inside you'll find roasted vegetables, Vegenaise, and Teese mozzarella cheese. What ties this burger together and makes it exceptional is the side of hot crispy steak fries that are out-of-this-world. I repeat: out-of-this-world.
4. The Flaming Ice Cube, Boardman and Cleveland, OH
The Vegan Burger at The Flaming Ice Cube delivers in providing its patrons with a scrumptious dish and one of VegNews Street Teamer Adam E.'s top picks. The housemade grilled soy-based patty is topped with all of the basics to make a stellar burger, and the classic mustard, ketchup, and vegan mayo combo act as the cherry on top. If you are in need of a cheese fix, Daiya mozzarella can be added, all you have to do is ask.
5. Fresh Café and Market, West Des Moines, IA
Johanna A. from VegNews' Street Team says that one of the best burgers she's ever eaten comes from a little spot in America's heartland. Comprised of carrots, mushrooms, beets, brown rice, and quinoa this gluten- and oil-free burger appeals to health nuts and foodies alike. Served on a whole-wheat bun, which can be opted out for a gluten-free wrap, smashed avocados give the Fresh Café's veggie burger a creamy tang.
6. Hillside Quickie, Seattle, WA
This Emerald City all-vegan eatery serves a Caribbean-American food fever dream via The Crazy Jamaican Burger. Comprised of a jerk tofu patty decked with ripe plantains, grilled sweet onions, potato salad, tomato, and eggless mayonnaise, you really can't go wrong. Whilst devouring this creation, you might just dream about lounging on a beach overlooking the crystal blue Caribbean Sea.
7. Lotus Café, Jackson, WY
In the Old West looking for a vegan bite? Lotus Café's Lotus Veggie Burger is sure to fill any burger void that you may have. This homemade patty is filled with quinoa, basmati rice, gold flax, sunflower seeds, carrot, legumes, and herbs. Atop the deliciously gluten-free creation sits tomato, lettuce, sautéed onion, and a house-made roasted garlic aioli (ask for the vegan kind!). For a dollar more, kimchi and a side of Korean barbecue sauce can elevate this already tasty fare to new heights.
8. Madeleine Bistro, Tarzana, CA
One of VegNews Managing Editor Elizabeth Castoria, Associate Publisher Colleen Holland, and VN columnist Allison Rivers Samson's favorite veggie burgers is The Bigger "Mack" served at Madeleine Bistro. With all three calling it nothing less than phenomenal, this burger is a must if you are in the Los Angeles area. The lip smacking Bigger "Mack" creates the ultimate trifecta with its fluffy, moist bun, dense burger, and tangy sauce. And don't be fooled by the name; this veggie burger blows anything McDonald's has ever created out of the water.
9. Native Foods, (CA, CO, IL, OR)
With Native Foods, you can never go wrong. Especially when you order the Oklahoma Bacon Cheeseburger, VegNews Online Editor Anna Peraino's go-to. Comprised of thinly sliced seitan, melted vegan cheddar, caramelized onions, romaine, carrots, tomato, and "bacon," smothered in barbeque sauce and ranch dressing, the Oklahoma Bacon Cheeseburger always hits the spot. Did I mention this burger is topped with battered pickle chips?
10. The Organic Grill, New York, NY
VN contributor Allyson Kramer calls The Organic Grill's Naked Burger her current favorite. While the grill calls this burger a dieter's dream, the veggie patty topped with sautéed mushrooms, onions, peppers, lettuce, tomato, and sprouts is nothing short of fabulous and flavorful, especially enveloped in added guacamole. Perfect for hungry stomachs wandering through the East Village of New York City, and vegans looking for something that tastes delicious but doesn't give you that greasy feel will be thoroughly impressed.
11. The Plant, San Francisco, CA
If you like covering your kappa maki rolls in wasabi like I do, you will become obsessed with The Plant Café's Wasabi Plant Burger. VN columnist Jesse Miner and Senior Editor Jennifer Chen rave about it. Chen says, "it's the kind of burger that you dream about." Topping a patty made of lentils, cashews, bulgur wheat, and veggies is sauerkraut, raspberry aioli, and wasabi; this burger makes its distinctiveness and tastiness known. On the side, The Plant Café serves herb-roasted potatoes with mixed greens and vegetables.
These 11 veggie burgers across the States will wow your taste buds with tantalizing flavors and delight all of your senses with their finger-licking scrumptiousness. Did we miss your favorite burger? Tell us about it in the comments! Happy eating!

My website has a top navigation bar with graphics and javascript codings - it weights about 60K.
I want to save it to a separate file in a way that every page can load it at the top, without using a frameset.
By doing that I hope to:
A. Allow browsers to cache the nav bar seperately = reduce loading time.
B. Update only one single file when necessary.
Is there some HTML technique for doing so?

The Hangover Part III Gives Us Plot Details: "HOORAY" Yelled No One
By Jodi Clager | Trade News | December 17, 2012 | Comments ()
The Hangover was a hilarious movie, in my humble opinion. My husband and I laughed so much that we needed a second viewing to hear lines that we missed. Then came The Hangover Part II which was the same movie as the first, but with more Ken Jeong penis, a monkey instead of a baby, and a face tattoo instead of a missing tooth. Oh, and with 99% less funny.
Now we have The Hangover Part III and the promise of a plot different from the first two. WHAT A NOVEL IDEA, TODD PHILLIPS.
Thankfully, this is the last one. The last time Bradley "EILF" Cooper, Justin Bartha, Ed Helms, and Zach Galifianakis pull their Wolfpack together and get into some shit together. The plot this time? Galifianakis' Alan is reeling from the death of his father and, one would guess, Cooper's Phil probably suggests a trip. Just a guess. Complications from a previous blackout night come back to kick the Wolfpack in the ass as well.
John Goodman, Heather Graham, Ken, Jeon, Jeffrey Tambor, Mike Epps and Melissa McCarthy will also be in the unneeded third movie, set to release May 24, 2013. Check the link above for a look at Jeong's character that I'm not comfortable posting here at this moment. You can have a look at this Abbey Road-looking bullshit from the movie. You're welcome!

After two back surgeries in as many months and still with no timetable for a return to the golf course, Tiger Woods received rare good news Wednesday. U.S. Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III named Woods one of three vice captains for the 2016 international golf competition.
The question now is whether Woods' role alongside fellow vice captains Jim Furyk and Steve Stricker will be strictly ceremonial.
MORE: Tiger Woods, superstar | Latest back surgery | Last time we saw Tiger
"Tiger wants to be a playing assistant. That's his goal," Love said, via PGATour.com. "He wants to make the team, but he wants to be involved in any way."
Woods echoed that sentiment, saying in a release: "I'd like to thank Davis for his confidence in me and for my selection as a Ryder Cup vice captain. This is something I want to do. I will continue to do whatever I can to help win the Cup back.
"Once I'm fully healthy, I'd like to try to make the team too, but either way, I'm very excited to work with Davis, the other vice captains and the players to get a U.S. victory."
Furyk will likely be trying to make the team as a player, too, considering he's ranked ninth in the world. Stricker, who is semi-retired from golf, is close friends with Woods and Love.
The 2016 Ryder Cup will take place at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minn. from Sept. 30 to Oct. 2.

Interviewed by Wisconsin's Polytechnic University
It's been more than a decade since I graduated from college, but the memories are vivid and most of them are good. I was recently contacted for an interview with Anoop Balachandran, coordinator of the Health & Fitness Center at the University of Wisconsin-Stout. This interview will appear in the Fitness Center's newsletter. By the way, Anoop maintains one of the few blogs out there with useful, research-based information (exercisebiology.com). The questions I answered were a pleasant diversion from the ones I typically get from the more advanced/technically inclined audience. While the latter are also important, they only apply to the minority of the population. In the following exchange, more of a general college student audience is addressed. Without further ado…. read more…

I've had my hands full!
Full-on brofessor mode
The above pic, taken earlier today, is of me & the nutritional counseling class of Dr. Terri Lisagor, at California State University, Northridge. Dr. Lisagor was one of my nutrition professors in my undergrad, and she's one of the most well-rounded, successful, big-hearted people I know. She regularly invites me to lecture to her students on a range of topics from sports nutrition, altering body composition, and counseling various client types. The teaching sessions consist primarily of Q & A with the students, and me coming apart by the jokes & wisdom that Terri interjects as I answer the students' questions. read more…
Paper Credentials Vs. The Fitness Industry
Is the fitness industry unique?
The fitness industry appears to be unique in its ability to facilitate career success despite a lack of what I call paper credentials (letters after your name). Before I go on with this, it might be a good idea to set some operational definitions for fitness industry & career success. The latter term is highly subjective, so let's just define it as the ability to make a decent living. I'm not necessarily talking about getting filthy-rich, but at least being able to comfortably cover your independent living expenses without needing a night-job where dollar bills are waved at you. read more…
A Recent Career Milestone
One of the most defining moments in my career just happened.
And no, it's not the fact that I stumbled into a brief torrent of T-shirt design. Some of you might relate to the experience I'm about to describe. The reason I wanna share this is not to show off how cool I am, but to show you how I still run into inner struggles with a journey that I've intended to create for myself. I also think there's a lesson or two to be learned, and I'd like to pass those on.
Last week I was given the opportunity to test my chops as the full-time nutritionist of the Los Angeles Kings. During a lengthy discussion with Jeff Solomon, the team's director of operations, we came to an agreement that my distance-based model of working with clients didn't line up with his vision of having a full-time staffer who traveled with the team. I could have decided to fulfill this more traditional position, but instead I chose to stick with my current trajectory. read more…
Chris Shugart Drops The Hammer
Loading the Ammo
The screenshot above is from the forum of fitness writer Chris Shugart. He recently posted a comment that would strike a chord with anyone who has studied nutrition or dietetics in a formal university setting. Before I get to that, let's cover some background about why it was said. To state the obvious, high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is controversial. My blog post critiquing Dr. Robert Lustig's fructose lecture brewed up a torrent of discussion. This included a 3-round debate between Lustig & I, which Lustig quite obviously lost. A summary of the action can be seen in this follow-up post.
Just when you think the clamoring over HFCS has hit a crescendo, there's always another peak. Last March, a Princeton University news release claimed that a study done at their home-turf finally showed that HFCS "prompts considerably more weight gain" than sucrose [1]. However, this study has critical flaws that ultimately render it an interesting, but highly inconclusive piece of animal data. A few of the study's important limitations are:
- Humans are not rats, especially when it comes to carbohydrate metabolism. The metabolic pathway where carbohydrate is converted to fat within the liver (called de novo lipogenesis, or DNL), is far more efficient in rats than in humans. I discuss this and other physiological differences in my research review.
- Dosing was irrelevant to human conditions. To quote a valid point made in a counter-release by the CRA, "Translating the study's reported rat intakes to human proportions, the calories gained from high fructose corn syrup would be equivalent to about 3000 kcal/day all from that single source. In comparison, adult humans consume about 2,000 calories per day from all dietary sources."
- There was no sucrose-fed control group for part of the short-term experiments and no sucrose-fed control group for the entirety of the long-term experiments in male rats. Missing sucrose control groups in the long-term phases of the experiment make it impossible to conclude that HFCS is uniquely lipogenic compared to sucrose.
- Inconsistencies in the results simply do not support the headline of the Princeton press release, nor the implications made by the researchers themselves. For example, in the only set of comparators that actually included a sucrose-fed group in the long-term phase of the study, no significant differences were seen in bodyweight or triglyceride levels. For details about the statistical problems of this study, check out this excellent review by James Krieger.
Bang Goes the Hammer
So what did Shugart say that really set things off? The discussion began after he posted a commentary against HFCS (claiming it's more harmful than sucrose), which he attempted to support by citing the aforementioned Princeton press release. In response to criticism leveled at the research he cited, Shugart decided to take a stiff jab at the dietetics profession. Click the screenshot below to see one of the most disparaging statements I've seen towards dietitians and nutrition students.
It's given that Registered Dietitians (RDs) are better known for their clinical skills than their work with physique competitors and athletic populations in general. In fact, I've done my past share of criticizing RDs as a group for not being current in their knowledge of sports nutrition. The difference is, being a former dietetics student, I saw this gap in the curriculum and responded by providing CDR-approved continuing education courses to RDs in order to help beef up their proficiency. Shugart, on the other hand, is quick to belittle and dismiss RDs, while having a considerably less rigorous education in nutritional science than them.
More importantly, however, he attacked their supposedly corrupt governing body instead of attacking the content of their argument. If it was a discussion about the intellectual or academic honesty of governing bodies, then T-Nation vs. the American Dietetic Association would be a fun comparison. Too bad the discussion was about the comparative metabolic effects of HFCS and sucrose.
Unfortunately for Shugart, a couple of fitness-savvy RDs lurking his forum responded in opposition. One member's tone was strong enough for Shugart to delete his responses. I personally don't care how aggressively someone comes off in a debate, but when their valid points get censored, you just have to shake your head. Thus far, Shugart has been unable to logically respond to the contentions put forth by the uncensored RD (and others) in this thread.
I think the moral of the story here is, in any discussion, place your focus on the data presented, not the decorations on the sleeve.

Where have you been, Alan?
Hello everyone,
No, I haven't completely disappeared. I've been catching up with work. Contrary to what my incredibly frequent entries might lead some to believe, I'm not a full-time professional blogger. In case anyone wonders, the above pic was recently taken at the Santa Monica beach. It's not reflective of where I've spent most of my time lately, but paying Mother Nature occasional visits has been very therapeutic for someone who gets way too much screen time.
I'll be back with a formal entry next month, but in the mean time, I want to direct your attention to some new (& semi-new) resources that are highly worthwhile.
- First up is a website my friend James Krieger recently launched, weightology.net. This is an excellent resource for anyone interested in high-quality, research-based information. James is one of the good guys in the fitness industry, and Heaven knows they are few and far-between.
- Those of you looking to streamline your social media will really appreciate fitmarker.com, which allows you to bookmark, share, discover and discuss all the best fitness-related information one convenient place.
- Fellow myth slayer and longtime friend Jamie Hale recently got published by Ulysses Press. His book Should I Eat the Yolk is available through mainstream commercial channels. Imagine that, a no-BS book unleashed upon the lay public by a major publishing house. Chalk up a big win for science!
- For those of you who have gotten bored with oatmeal, Kath Eats Real Food just might be your ticket to putting the awesome back into your oats. For those of you who forgot how civil I can be in internet debates, here's a classic one I had with Kath herself. Anyone who doesn't get a good chuckle out of that is simply comatose.
- LATE-BREAKING EDIT: Go over to the Swedish Phenom's site right now & check out the training research roundtable in which I participated along with Lyle McDonald, Borge Fagerli, and James Krieger.
- Finally, I'd like to plug wannabebig.com since Daniel Clough is such a patient guy when it comes to waiting for articles from me. I'd also like to mention that WBB is elevating itself beyond the typical "bro box" by running articles from clear-minded writers like JC Deen and Ryan Zielonka.

Abstract75396B Reactive distilation is a new technology for the chemical and petroleum industries, which can lower energy consumption, improve the yields of reactions, enhance production of desired products, and reduce manufacturing costs. This project will develop a novel reactive distillation technology, along with improved catalysts, for an important chemical intermediate, vinyl ether. In Phase I, new catalysts were developed specifically for reactive distillation, laboratory performance data were generated to demonstrate process feasibility, and process simulations and economic studies showed the competitive advantage of the new reactive distillation technology. The results showed that for the manufacture of polyvinyl alcohols, a multi-billion dollar market, energy consumption was cut in half compared to traditional technology. Phase II will complete the development of the new catalysts; evaluate the performance of these catalysts in bench scale laboratory systems; conduct reactive distillation simulations, design, and cost analyses; and will prove commercial operability in an integrated, large scale pilot plant. Production of polyvinyl alcohol that meets commercial specifications will be demonstrated. Commercial Applications and Other Benefits as described by the awardee: The new reactive distillation technology should result in immediate benefits in the manufacture of an important set of chemical intermediate, vinyl ethers. The total manufacturing cost of this new technology is forecasted to be is as low as the raw materials cost alone for conventional manufacturing technology. Reactive distillation thus would be shown to be a viable technology for the production of other chemical products.

"What's It Sound Like: Your favorite song. Cash cites KT Tunstall and Ed Sheeran on his ReverbNation profile as his "Sounds Like," but that doesn't do it justice.

One that you want to take on a car ride with the windows down and the music up and one foot out the window...You know how those dumb reality TV singing competitions talk about that "It Factor" that just can't be explained? Cash has got "It." It's a combination of talent (which he has coming out his ears) and a certain charm and natural ease that makes for a great performer. (I think it was the same sort of je ne sais quoi that got Clinton elected President, I'm just saying.)"
